They were having fun at the bar, but still the lingering doubts and uncertainty about Billy's house being accidentally burned down and what would happen if Billy was found to be the culprit. Although the cause of the fire was investigated to be bad electrical wiring, they all knew there was a chance Billy could still be caught. They also had no home to sleep in anymore. They were fuced if it was revealed that Billy accidentally caused the fire. They also had no home to go back to. They were fuced. After the bar, they went to the hotel.
Axl thanked God he had digitally stored all the Contracts and they weren't just paper Contracts. Cream Rose was grateful too.
Billy snuggled to Axl asking him to comfort him. He felt traumatized. Axl obliged him and comforted him, knowing that Billy needed his comfort and support.
Axl caressed Billy's hair and said,"Where do we go? Where do we go? Where do we go now?" Billy smiled a little, through his traumatization. He was grateful he had Axl who loved him. Cream Rose also comforted Billy.Billy was also glad he had Andy, Mike, James and Jimmy who also loved him. Billy fell asleep.
Cream Rose wondered what they would do. Billy was sure to become in big trouble with the law if the pizza was found to be the real cause of the fire, not bad electrical wiring.
On the news, there was movie theater surveillance that showed that Billy, in fact, showed up later to the movie theater than the rest of Cream Rose, like HOURS later. Billy no longer had an airtight alibi, although the rest of Cream Rose did.
No! Jimmy, Axl, Andy, Mike, and James cried in unison again. Billy was sure to be the number one Suspect with this new public info. They woke up Billy and told him the bad news.
No! Billy cried horrified. Billy said,"You guys will still protect me, right? Cream Rose looked at each other uneasily, but they knew they had promised to protect Billy. Billy would have protected either one of them if any of them were in Billy's position.
There was a Star Wars Convection going on and Axl, wearing a disguise and makeup that covered all of his tattoos bought 6 Darth Vader Costumes. His plan was to disguise himself and Cream Rose as Darth Vader, hiding Billy from the Authorities. He told them to all meet him at a secluded place and they agreed. At the secluded place, he gave all of them the Darth Vader Costumes and they went to the Star Wars Convection as Darth Vader. Problem was, LOTS of other People were also Darth Vader, not surprisingly. They decided to stay close to each other in order to not get separated. This was when Cream Rose's penchant for being really close to each other came in handy.
They were entertained at the Star Wars Convection , looking like any other Darth Vader Fan. The Convection was over later and the 6 of them were able to walk into a Walgreens and put money on reloadable gift cards, and not look out of place due to the Star Wars Convection. They soon left. There were more Darth Vader Fans close by.
Cream Rose actually made a plan to send Billy on the run, and Billy agreed. Cream Rose said their goodbyes to Billy, and he said them back, and Billy went to the crowd of other Darth Vader Fans and soon ran off into the night, undetected. Axl, Jimmy, James, Andy and Mike were glad Billy was able to get away.
The news later that night pointed out that Billy was officially on the run and was a Fugitive.
Axl's phone rang and "Unknown Caller," popped up on his Cellphone. Axl knew who it was.
He answered. Billy said," I love you, Axl. Axl smiled and repeated it back. Billy and Axl made kissing noises over the phone, the implication clear. Billy said,"I'm at a payphone, I gotta run."
Axl told him, "I understand."
They quickly both hung up.
Cream Rose couldn't believe that Billy was a Fugitive on the run. Technically, this was worse than when Axl was a Fugitive on the run since they all knew where Axl was and Axl was being hidden at Billy's house, which was now burned down. Oh, the bittersweet memories.
